Neo Geo Gold priced and dated

The Neo Geo was confirmed for a return in January, but now an official price and release date have been announced.

It’s not much to get excited about. The Neo Geo Gold, a device that plays games from two decades ago, will be available for $200. To put that into perspective, you could snap up the latest console from Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo for a similar price.

The handheld comes with pre-installed games, a docking station and a replica arcade stick, but this hardly softens the blow of the price.

SNK Playmore classic Samurai Showdown 2 is now available on a range of mobile devices, with customisable touch screen controls including a windowed mode so you don’t block the action with your greasy thumbs.
